Targeted in- 0 1 2 km Map produced by Metrolinx on 2/28/2020. 2029 - 2030 Base data from Land Information Ontario & Statistics Canada. service date Scarborough Subway Extension What's New? • On March 5, Metrolinx and Infrastructure Ontario identified Strabag as the team who will design, build and finance the tunnel for the Scarborough Subway Extension. • Strabag will proceed with early design work and begin setting up for construction at the launch shaft site. • In December, we refined our construction approach from two launch shafts to one launch shaft to reduce impacts to the community. • We've completed over 120 geotechnical investigations to gather data about soil and water conditions. • Preparatory works continue along the project route as utilities are relocated and surveys are completed. • Up next: transit corridor lands designation Scarborough Subway Extension Transit Corridor Lands • Building transit in built-up urban areas means working with property owners along proposed transit routes to support the planning, design and construction of important projects. • Under the Building Transit Faster Act, 2020, the Province now allows land that may be needed for transit construction to be designated as transit corridor land. This change will help Metrolinx build transit faster, resulting in fewer inconveniences for neighbouring communities while avoiding issues that have caused delays in the past. • Transit corridor lands will be identified for each Subway project – the Ontario Line, the Scarborough Subway Extension, the Eglinton Crosstown West Extension and the Yonge North Subway Extension. Scarborough Subway Extension Determining Transit Corridor Lands • The borders for transit corridor lands were set by looking at existing CORRIDOR CONTROL LANDS infrastructure in the area, the route and 10.0m design of the transit line, and how it can TRANSIT CORRIDOR LANDS Permit for be built. Utilities • A 30-metre buffer area was then set 30.0m around the transit corridor lands to allow ABOVE GRADE for any other needs that could come up Permit for Buildings, during further design and construction Structures & Roads work – the same changes that apply to transit corridor lands apply to these TUNNELS 10.0m buffer areas as well. 30.0m Scarborough Subway Extension What does this mean for your property? • Many who own or occupy transit corridor lands will likely experience little to no impacts. For others, it may mean a small change to business as usual. • If your property is on or within 30 m of transit corridor lands, there will be some changes in the following areas: o How titles of properties appear in the land registry o How properties can be accessed for transit planning and construction o Permits required for planned work Scarborough Subway Extension Notice on title The title of your property will include a notice about it being on or within 30 metres of transit corridor land. • This notice will appear on the title of your property in the land registry. Having this notice on title will also help ensure any future owners of the property are aware of the designation. • This does not restrict or prevent you from renting, leasing or selling your property now or in the future. • The notice will be in effect during planning and construction, but will be removed once the project is complete. Scarborough Subway Extension Allowing access for transit planning & construction Metrolinx may need to visit your property to help prepare transit plans. • This could be for inspections, to make records or to conduct tests related to the planning or construction of a transit project. • Typically, Metrolinx will work with you to negotiate a “permission to enter” agreement, which outlines the details of where, when and how Metrolinx will visit your property. • If an agreement can’t be reached within project timelines, Metrolinx will schedule a visit providing you are given 30 days advance notice. If this is the case, workers will not enter any homes and will follow all necessary health measures to ensure your safety. The plans Metrolinx prepares may identify a need to remove something that could interfere with construction, such as a shed, tree, or hedge. • If this applies to your property, Metrolinx will also give you at least 30 days advance notice. If an object or structure poses an immediate construction safety risk, providing advance notice may not be possible. • Metrolinx will work with you to come to an agreement on how to best carry out the work, restore property if required and determine compensation. Scarborough Subway Extension Getting permits for planned work If you are planning to build, change or place a building, other structure or road on or under your property, a permit from Metrolinx may be required. • Examples for things that would require a permit include extensions of homes, decks, pools or sheds. Interior renovations would not require a permit. • Metrolinx permits would be required in addition to (and prior to) any necessary municipal permits; no application fee will be charged for a permit from Metrolinx. This new permitting requirement will help avoid conflicts with nearby transit construction and reduce the likelihood that you might have to stop or redo your work in the future. • If you are currently undergoing or planning any of these activities, please contact Metrolinx at [email protected] to determine if a permit is necessary. Scarborough Subway Extension How will I know if my property is affected? • If the property you own or occupy is on transit corridor land or within the 30 metre buffer area, you will be notified by letter. • If you live in a condo, it is the condo boards who will be notified and asked to share this information through their usual communication channels. • We will also be asking property owners to notify tenants of this designation through their usual communication channels. • Receiving a letter does not necessarily mean your property is needed in any way – it is only to notify you of the designation. o If your property is needed, you will receive separate letters outlining what is needed in more detail. Scarborough Subway Extension Property acquisition process • If we confirm your property is needed, you will receive separate written notification from us. • We only acquire properties that are absolutely necessary for projects and we strive to minimize the footprint of our land requirements through careful planning and design • Our preferred approach is direct, one-on-one negotiations with owners, with the goal of reaching amicable agreements. o Expropriation is a backstop tool. Even when expropriation is initiated, Metrolinx continues to negotiate with owners in the hopes of reaching agreements • Whether we have to acquire a portion of a property or the entire property, the property owner will be compensated at fair market value • Whenever Metrolinx needs to acquire property to support a new transit project, our commitment is to ensure that owners and tenants do not experience a financial loss. • Metrolinx strives to communicate with property owners early and often so that there is ample time to work through solutions.

  • Scarborough Centre on the Move
    PILLAR TWO SUPPORT TRANSIT & INNOVATIVE MOBILITY SOLUTIONS Scarborough Centre on the Move Transportation6 Master Plan 97 Pillar Two Support Transit & Innovative Mobility 6 Solutions The second study pillar is the promotion of transit and innovative mobility solutions to move more people through the transportation system efficiently. Transit-oriented development and support of transit investment in key areas is emphasized in planning and policy documents including provincial plans such as the Regional Transportation Plan (The Big Move) and the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, municipal plans such as the City of Toronto Official Plan and City of Toronto Complete Streets Guidelines (CSG), and local policies such as the Scarborough Centre Secondary Plan and McCowan Precinct plan. The benefits of transit are described in this chapter, along with details on the existing and proposed transit network and supporting strategies. This chapter includes mobility options such as local buses, subways, rapid transit (RT), autonomous vehicles, and other “smart” technologies that improve network efficiency. 6.1 Benefits Social Equity The regional transportation plan, the Big Move, envisions that 80% of residents will live within two kilometres of rapid transit, citing that access to frequent, fast, and affordable transit is crucial for social equity and cohesion. Transit provides access to society and the economy, particularly for those with low incomes who cannot afford to own and maintain a personal vehicle, as well as individuals unable to operate a vehicle, including the youth or elderly. Transit service helps integrate individuals into communities and regions to allow overall participation in employment opportunities and other activities.

COVER- A pair of TTC H5 subway cars were appropriately decorated for the official opening of the Bloor-Danforth Subway extensions, on Friday, Nov. 21, 1980. —TTC photos by Ted Wickson QUOTE OF THE MONTH- (Extracts from an editorial in the Toronto Star of November 5, chosen by the Newsletter particularly to mark the completion of the Kennedy and Kipling extensions): "In the past two years the politicians... have ducked the hard decision about investing in the TTC as a force that could determine the future development of Metro—the fastest, — most convenient form of public transit is the kind that runs on fixed rail such as the subway or LRT—Even in the fitful economy of the '80's, a new transit line can have a stimulating effect. Metro needs more of them. The next obvious one is an east-west line along Eglinton, Sheppard or Finch Avenues—If politicians show a bit of nerve and build fixed rail transit into thinly populated areas, experience has shown these soon become thickly populated areas.

  • Assessment of Provincial Proposals Line 2 East Extension
    EX9.1 Attachment 5 – Assessment of Provincial Proposals Line 2 East Extension As directed by City Council in April 2019, City and TTC staff have assessed the Province’s proposed 3-stop Line 2 East Extension. The details of this assessment are provided in this attachment. 1. Project Summary 1.1 Project Description The Line 2 East Extension (L2EE), as proposed by the Province, is an approximately 8 kilometre underground extension of Line 2 Bloor-Danforth from Kennedy Station that will have three stations – at Lawrence and McCowan, Scarborough Centre and Sheppard and McCowan, as shown in Figure 1. The Province's plan for the L2EE is similar to what was being planned by the City and TTC prior to 2016. Figure 1 - Line 2 East Extension Reference Map Note: Map produced by City/TTC based on current understanding of project Attachment 5 – Assessment of Line 2 East Extension Page 1 of 9 As proposed, the extension will be fully integrated with the existing Line 2 and have through service at Kennedy Station. A turn-back may be included east of Kennedy Station to enable reduced service to Scarborough Centre, subject to demand and service standards. The extension will require approximately seven additional six-car, 138-metre-long trains to provide the service. The trains would be interoperable with the other trains on Line 2. With the station at Sheppard and McCowan supporting storage of up to six trains, there is sufficient storage and maintenance capacity existing at the TTC’s Line 2 storage and maintenance facilities to accommodate this increase in fleet size.
